New York, July 90.
Last Tuesday at Monmouth park. Mr.. An
Gust Belmont's filly Peeress finished first in a
large field, Satan being the place horse. The
race was OF course given to Peeress and bets
were paid Just as If everything had been all
right. 1t was afterwards learned upon the
protest OF Satan's owner that Peeress had car
ried five pounds less than she should, and the
judges concluding that he was right awarded
the stakes to Satan. This brings a kick from

To this ridiculous argument will say that
the fact remains that she did win with the

that ought to settle the matter as far as Mr..
Belmont is concerned, and he should get the
stakes. As for Satan, the jockey club ought
to be compelled also to pay him. The book

fact that Peeress had won and now refuse TO

was not really an empire; it could hardly be
said to have a central government. The an
Gent political system had completely broken
down and nothing else had taken its place. At
Toxic the tycoon held his court, but his power
was weak and local; at Kizoto the mikado
had even less power. There was political
chaos. BY the operation Of the old feudal
system the dainiios, or local mobiles, had at
tanned a practical Independence, each ruling
his own territory despotically-in short, Japan
was loose and almost lawless confederacy
This is no place to describe the series of mas.
terly me assures by which the mikado de-
stroyed the local sovereignties; suffice it that
it was thoroughly done, the daimios were dis
armed, and the revived empire of Japan en-
tered ON an extraordinary era of progress
English and American ideas were rapidly
adopted Even the European dress was in
troduced, through travellers with an eve to
artistic effect think the japanese ladies have
lost more than they gained by this reform"
serious attempt was even made to introduce
the English language, by reason of it's greater
convenience i'll writing; but the learned men
soon decided that the irregularities of Eng
hsh spelling and grammar more than offset
the other advantage. Japan is already
known to us almost as well as the
countries Of Europe, and their apprecia.
ton OF Americans grows with acquaintance
They honored Gen. Grant as they had
never done any foreigner and on that occa-
sion the nikado for the first time appeared
IN publican astounding innovation in
Japan. Soon after he publicly awarded the
prizes at the Japan university, and since then
has lived much like the monarchs Of Europe.
With these facts in mind we may appreciate
the enthusiasm noted on the late occasion at
Yokohama. Midshipman w. c. Cole, Of the
British navy, writes that though the mikado
has not got westernized quite to the extent Of
holding dancing parties. at which the officers
could attend. "he delegated that function to
the minister for foreign affairs, and the latter,
wiie' Countess Mooye, appeared in European
dress. or the other ladies most followed the
example; but one damsel, probably suf
ficient!y high born to disregard sumptuary
laws, appeared in the old fashioned court
dress with her hair tied up in the hideous
manner depicted. She was a conservative
minority of one. The charm lay chiefly in
the decoration OF the building, which was
bright with chrysanthemums and wistaria
The charm Of rural adornment even in the
city is an instinct with the japanese"

ether, and the holes surrounding them are

sorms pleasant one to walk and drive upon,
but the planks will soon rot, and it promises
TO be an expensive experiment. Kansas City
has twenty miles of streets paved in this way
20 six miles of MacAdam and not quite two
miles OF stone blocks. AS to sidewalks, the
older parts OF the city are laid out with
brick and there is some tagging, but all over
1t the wide board walks of a new western
town remain in patches. In front of some of
the chief business stores-roons which rant

The stores Of Kansas City are good and
many OF them carry very large stocks OF
goods. The price OF such things as knew
seemed to me not higher than in the east and
the collection good as could be found in
eastern cities Of the same size. Kansas Civ
has been made by its commerce, and it is in

chinery. "a.
In reports given IN the two leading daily
papers Of Kansas City summing up the bust
ness of the past six months, it is stated that
there has been an increase of about 40 per
cent. in the wholesale business of the city
since the beginning Of this year, and
the retail merchants generally report that
trade is good. The wholesale grocery trade.
which amounted to $20, 000. 600 in 1886. is es-
tmated to have increased 10 per cent, whole
sale dry goods sales have increased so per
cent. and agricultural implements about a5
rer cent. The crops are excellent all over
Kansas and in tine territory tributary to this
city, and prosperous fall trade is expected.

cent eastern regatta have scarcely been in
keeping with his bombastic utterances
AT any rate, If he really considers Ross to be
very inferior oarsrnan, he should at once
hasten to ratify the match, as soft snaps "

grounds Of there not being anything in the
evidence to sustain the allegations Of the
complaint. After argument on both sides
the case was dismissed and Mr.. Box honor
ably discharged. The evidence showed
that Box had nothing to do with the affair,
and that the complaining witness must have
